Opinion | Trump's primary winning streak continues. But his revenge tour could still backfire.
Thomas Massie’s defeat Tuesday was the latest win for the president in a Republican primary. But what works today is poised to be a liability in the fall.
Masse found out what most Republicans already know. "you do not violate the cardinal rules and survive politically."
You do not speak out against Trump!
You do not vote against Trump!
You do not legislate against Trump!
You live by the maxim that Trump is always right, even when he's wrong.
You recognize that what's best for your constituents and district matters not. What matters is what's best for Trump, first and foremost.
You and Trump both swore "To protect and defend the Constitution...", but that means "the Constitution as interpreted by Trump.
Deviate from any of these rules, and your political career goes into the dumper.
Bigly!!!
